HDFC ERGO - First-of-its-kind Community Portal
With the plethora of promoted material freely available all around, consumers find it difficult getting the right information regarding products, and more so in the case of Insurance products which are intangible in nature. Consumers therefore, rely on age old methods of seeking advice from family and friend and most often, consider their opinion as the final word while taking a decision. Addressing this fundamental issue the HDFC ERGO Community, an innovative portal, was launched as an online discussion forum for existing & potential customers, product experts as well as seeker of information on General Insurance.
Speaking about the community portal, Mr. Ritesh Kumar, Managing Director & CEO, HDFC ERGO General Insurance Company, said, âWe have taken the initiative of providing consumers with the knowledge of General Insurance products and thereby set best practices within the insurance sector. The community portal has been conceptualized with the objective of helping users take informed decisions for their general insurance requirements and will be a one-stop-shop for comprehensive information about non-life insurance products and services. Over time, the Community portal will be enriched with quality content by the users and may provide inputs on how to improve and extend new product offerings.â
